I will go to boutique tomorrow and will take logo pics for you to see. The bag i decided on has an old logo and im sure i will find the new logo in store tomorrow. I personally prefer the old logo, I dont know why the first thing a new CD enters a House is to change the logo...
Thank you! And happy birthday! Can't wait to see what you choose!

Thank you for your time replying me. I really appreciate it. I have finally made up a decision (i think). I will go to Moynat boutique tomorrow afternoon to pick it up as tomorrow is my birthday. I will keep you all posted about my final decision. I think this may not be my last Moynat piece hahaha so i will have to downsize on other brands haha

Hello, I am 5'3 as well. Below are pictures of me carrying it on the shoulder and crossbody. There are 5 holes on the adjustable strap if I remember it correctly. I used 2nd from the top for crossbody and 4th from the top for over the shoulder. I have also included with what I usually carry that fits in the Gaby pm. The base of the bag is fairly generous, so there's room for more items if you need to. But it may get heavier. The pm size looks best over the shoulder or handheld due to its elegant design. But crossbody works when you are in a pinch for handsfree. It is smaller than you think when you see it in person because the sides cinch in. I can use it for a day out. The size, style and the color definitely make the bag much more user friendly than an occasional bag. I normally don't travel with luxury handbags as I don't want to attract attention. Plus I prefer using an all weather bag for travel. But Gaby pm should fit passport, etc. (Probably not a 12oz bottle water, though).

Hello dears!

I'm planning my first Moynat purchase for my 38th birthday this week. I have been to the store multiple times, service has been awesome but i can never make up my mind. Im in love with Gabrielle and Gaby in the small size (not the mini).
I'm a casual wearer (sneakers, jeans, neutrals kind of girl) and I have a quite large designer handbag collection (Hermes, Chanel, Celine, Loewe, Fendi...).
As I am getting older, I am more into minimalist looking, great craftmanship, no logo, neutral bags.
I want to use this bag, i dont want to put it on a shelf to admire it (that's where my Kelly is) but i also want a classic piece that will last forever and this may be my only Moynat bag since im really trying to downsize my collection instead of adding more into it lol

Attached pics I took wearing the Gabrielle PM. Unfortunately, i dont have any pics wearing a Gaby.
I think the Gabrielle is perfection, but as im a casual wearer i will probably use the Gaby more, but then i think i have so many bags that i can rotate and then i could get the gabrielle in palledium that looks more casual. One day i wake up saying im going to buy the gabrielle and another the gaby and its been already a year that i want a Moynat bag lol

Once i decide on which one to get, gabrielle or gaby, i need your extra help on the colour.

So to summarize, should i get...?

Gabrielle black gold hw
Gabrielle black palladium hw
Gaby black gold hw
Gaby black palladium hw
Gaby taupe gold hw (attached is with palladium since my store didnt have a gold hw one now, but i tend to prefer gold hw in this color combo)

Both bags in PM size because im quite fat so mini looks ridiculous on my frame lol

Appreciate all your opinions~
Hi and Happy Birthday! That Gabrielle PM looks great on you btw. My first Moynat purchase was a black Gabrielle in PHW. It was the shape and hardware that caught my eye and I was also looking for a work type bag at that time. On my very first visit to the boutique, I didn't know much the brand but I loved how the bag looked and already knew what bag specs and colour I wanted to get so I did not take long to make the purchase. Back then, I thought that the Gabrielle would be my one and only Moynat bag. But fast forward to now, I already have a couple of them... Perhaps one too many :lol:

I agree that the Gabrielle is perfection so much so that I even ended up buying the clutch a few months later. I wasn't into the Gaby all that much initially until my interest in Moynat grew and saw photos of the bag on social media and this thread. Now that I own both, I can say I like them equally for different reasons. As much as I love the Gabrielle, when I am in casual wear I tend to carry out other bags instead of that. However, there are definitely people who can pull off casual with a dressier bag like a kelly sellier or Gabrielle. Anyway whichever you choose, you'll be bringing home a wonderful bag for sure!

Check out to day’s Moynat bread crumb message on IG. :coolio:
I don't know about you but I just find these "teasers" hugely annoying. (Almost as annoying as posting swatches on IG!) I believe in the past they would do a press day during Paris fashion week(s) and that would be the first glimpse of prototype bags and new sizes/versions. It doesn't seem that that happened during the F/W shows that ended this week. (Anyone has different info please correct me!)

Dear Moynat - Show us the damned bags or shut up.

I agree! That’s basically what I commented on their IG too.

I completely agree with you.

I think the Covid shutdowns in France kinda messed up their reveal. The workshop was closed off and on until recently, so the company has been up in the air about the schedule. Now that the vaccine is here and the infection numbers are dropping a bit, Moynat is excitedly preparing for Knightly’s debut with the company.

I can definitely see where the teasing thing is not appropriate in this situation. Clients are not five-year-olds.

My SA just texted me and said that the new collection will be on the cover of WWD tomorrow. Finally!!!
